The DAMIC detector exploits the energy precision, low noise, and imaging capabilites of thick CCD's (developed for IR astronomical imaging) in the direct search for dark matter. The use of a low noise silicon target extends the WIMP sensitivity down to masses of 1 GeV, and a 100 gram detector operating at SNOLAB will soon establish the best world limits on low mass WIMPS.
